issuine a proclamation " proposing a truce
hostilities and the Immediate assembling of
national convention !" It seems to me, my dear
sir, that there are some serious objections
this ch;p 'plan of peace; and first, the President
ha no power to call a national convention.
Second, if be did call It. there is not the remotest
probability that the Insurgent State would obey
tbe call, rniro, 11 mey uiaooey it, were
little hope that they would agree to come
eqaal term with tbe other State, by recanting
their recent assumption of separate and abso
lute sovereignty, and by restoring all that
bave taken by violence from the United State.
Io short, after all that Is past, It seems to
that there are but two alternative left to
Administration: first, to submit implicitly
all the claim of tbe insurgent - States,
quietly consent to a dismemberment of tbe
tion; or leoona, to ao it oeet w restore peace,
law and order, by supporting "the Constitution
and the Union, and the enforcement of

dilemma tbe Administration ought to take,

Inexperience! but those in no single Instance
wear tbe semblance of being Ineradicable; on
the contrary, they are in . great measure the
consequence of ao ardent ambition to attain at

Tiberini) an Amioa, In short, not yet done
growing bad never before beeu witnessed
The recitative. "Car campagne," however,
showed at once that iu this particular case
yontbfuloes and depth of feeling might be
found both naturally and graceiuny unitea;
while, long before the termination of the air,
"Come per me sereno," with Its brilliant "aba
ktU.n "Sovra 11 sen la man ml posa," a couvic
tion was unanimously entertained by the audience
that a ainger of genuine reeling, rare guts, and
decided originality stood before them. A high so
praoo voice, equal, (resn, and telling in every
note of the medium, tbe upper "E flat," and even
"V" at ready command: admirable accentua
tion of the words; considerable flexibility; dash
Ing and effective u?e of "bravura;" expression
warm, euerueiio, and varied, while never exag
gerated: and. last, not least, an intonation
scaroely ever at fault such were the valuable
qualities that revealed themselves in turn dur
ing the execution or Amina's wen known apos
trophe to her companions the auspicious day
that is to unite her to Elviuo, and which raised
the house to positive enthusiasm . A thing that
must have astonished every one was tbe tho
rough ease and "aplomb" (an excellent term;
with wnicn so young a stranger conironteu
formidable an assembly, in tbe midst or diiucni
tie that, at times, are apt to unsettle the
oldest and most practiced stage singers.

that the ingenuous oonndence or youtn,
uncheokeiad by the maoepubmty ot a nervous

Mademoiselle Adeline Patti's first essay was
veritable triumph, and ber ultimate success thus
placed beyond a douot. vv nsntne applause
tbe end of "Come per me sereno" had subsided,
there was a general buzz of satisfaction. Tbe
consciousness of a new sensation having been
nnexnectadlv exnerienced seemed universal
among the audience, who, in grateful recogni
tion, miebt bave addressed tne new songstress

pearance is told in the foregoing. ' What follow

to descant upon tbe mlll-seeue,wlth the touching
sppeal or the innocent gin to ine nowers

Innocence is established, and ber lover

Much is said about tne contempiatea move

on the subject is that an assault will not beat-

large forces will advance upon it from three

Slaughter of Two Thousand Persons
in Africa.
F
(B
One of the native missionaries, who witnessed
the "errand custom" of tbe King of Dahomey.
says that more than 9,000 male human beings
were slaughtered, and about as many females
and young children, besides enormous num
bers of doer, turkey, buzzards end other fowl
In a commercial paint of view, it has been pro
ductive of evil. Tbe west African Herald says
"We learn that besides tbe terrible secrlfice
of human life caused by the Dahoman 'grand
custom,' It has also bad tbe effect of, In a great
measure, putting a stop to trade io that part of
the country. All tne principal people nave
been compelled to repair to tbe capital (Abo-
mey) and remain there to witness this custom
In VVydah we understand there were, when
our informant left that town, few people but
women and slaves. The. palm nuts were rot
ting on the trees; commerce and agriculture
were languishing grievously. ...
Among tbe King of Dahomey's army there Is
a troop called the Amason Guards., Tbe West
Airican titraia tout aescnoes tnem: "the
Amazon Guards, as tbey have sometimes been
styled, are tbe most extraordinary troop that we
have ever beard or read of. .Tbey are 3,000 In

Nankin Totally Destroyed.
HONG KONG, April 13.
Bv tbo return of a private etesmer to Shang
hai from Hangkow we learn that Admiral Hope,
with tbe fleet, was close to Hangkow on the
11th ult. The foreigner who visited riangkow
were courteously received by tbe Chinese au
thorities. It does not appear that the Insurgents
havs yet sot possession of Kinglang, but tbe
places they bave taken exhibit a sad state of
destruction, we learn ine lonowing particu
lars of tbe journey ta Hangkow and tbe places
visited; Nankin is totally destroyed, as Is also
Cbinkiang, tbe first of the open ports; both are
a mass of ruins. ' - . ' ' j VI . '
The rebels at Nankin proved civil, but ap
peared degraded sot.' ' ' All trade Is stopped
snd tbe people quite enslaved, . being forced lo
work without pay, getting only a little food. In
moving about the place nothing 1 was seen but
misery and desolation. Nankin is the last port
held .by tbe rebels, and ths country as : far as
this presented tbe same features of destruction.
Above this, the appearanoe of the country 'im
proved, but the towns along tbe route bad all
suffered informer attacks from the rebels, and,
with ibe exoeption of Hangkow, only small pon
ugni un dhu resouk iuuuuki vui w w i
tion have been rebuilt. Klnklang, on of the
new ports, Is about twenty mile above tbe en
trance to the Foyang Lake, and will be an im
portant place, Deing near tne tea oiairieta.
rom Klnklang to Hangkow, th dlstanoe Is one
hundred and thirty five miles, making the to
tal dlstanoe from Woosungto the latter place
six hundred - miles.- Hangkow comprise thtee
cities Hanskow oroner. on the the left bank
of the river; Wuchang, opposite to It on the
igbtr and Hanyang, on tbe same aide as
Hangkow, but divided from It by the Han
river. - .. i- ; . ....
It Is an enormous piaoe, although not half tbe
size it was, as seen by tbe ruin. Life and ao
tlvitv prevailed, and. lr not interiered with oy
revolution, it already immense trade 1 likely
to iporease. Communication by water leads
from it in all direction. The principal diffi
culty in the navigation up tbe river was at Foo
shaD,but with suitable steamer and a little more
experience of tbe river, this, in a great measure,
will be obviated.;
